It used to be about 50/50 until i moved back to NY. I just cant afford to buy a lot of smokes at a B&M with the way the tabacco taxes are here. I will still stop at the Indian Reservation from time to time if im in the area. They are still tax free there.

I do both. I'd say about 75% in favor of online. I go to my local B&M for singles and some boxes that are just as cheap as online. I go online for other boxes as well as the "Other" cigars that cannot be purchased in the USA.

Online only. B&M's are often less than desirable. Not to be a prick but I can't wait till all of them in this area close. I believe one has already.

Would like to buy locally at a store but the nearest store with anything worthwhile is over three hours away.

I found not a lot of online stores with a large selection sell to people 18 years of age

Singles at my local B&M's and bulk purchases on line.

Regularly online, but I have been known to drop in a B&M for a few singles on occasion.

Both. My practice is to go to the local shop every couple weeks, pick up several different sticks, and if I find one I really like, I start looking for great prices online.

I always buy at B&M but I'm to new and still trying to figure out what I like but have been thinking of ordering online to try it out.

Mostly online. B&M for when I want something now.

No B&M near me so I buy online most of the time.

90% at a B&M, I don't like waiting for something I already paid for. Always good to support them or else they will disappear.

Singles at the B&M and boxes online.

Majority online...every now and then I'll go into a B&M to 'sample' a brand and if I like it; buy the box online.

ALmost exclusively online. 70% tax in MN makes the B&M price very expensive. $11 for a CAO italia robusto? lulz.
